| Barcelona is a huge city for a small boat!

It is approaching one week at mooring space E45 in Port Vell now. We have been to big cities before, but never by boat. Coming to cities along the coast by boat make different demands on infrastructure than if you come from the road. On smaller sites this is usually never a problem, but Barcelona has a completely different experience. There is no doubt that everything - absolutely everything can be arranged here. But you must go and go and go infinite distance for the smallest screw. The alternative is to use the phone and order. But then you must be incredibly precise, their English is limited, and our Spanish likewise. Despite the great conditions and lots of exercise has been done. Fuel tanks were full of "mud", and had to be cleaned. Diesel filters are changed, oil changed, løygangen are in place and all the electrical groundwork for installations in Gibraltar is completed.
